I am back to commuting... a short ride in and then an extended ride homegood to be logging mandatory miles againthat has me sweating it out in cycling gear and then changing at workas they say in Bangkok... it is hot is it Washington DC hotand it is not the heat... it is the humidityswimming to work on the bike would describe my commuteunlike my last job where I had a closet all my own to hang my sweaty shit and leave a change of clothes at workI have to lug everything including shoes and lock back and forthgood thing I have an ERGON PACK!the Ergon Pack carries the weight off the back and balances the weight on my hipsso I can sweat... but I sweat slightly less as my back can breathand I do not suffer an excess of painas the weight is on the waist strap and my hips rather than my shoulders and backErgon Packswww.ergon-bike.comI have this Ergon Pack (an an assortment of other Ergon products)all of which are "ergonomically" designedI know...
